Make It Happen In 2012!!!

I am a Junior at Richland High School so I have one year and 18 weeks before I graduate from Richland. Last semester I had some habits that weren't very good ones and I am going to though them out the window, to help me make better choices.

1. Staying Up Late...  I am going to stop saying up late on school nights. When I stay up late I come to school tired and potentially more likely to be late to my classes. Without staying up late I will better succeed in my

2. Taking Notes...  I am going to start taking better notes in my classes that need it. When I take notes they are often jumbled words thrown together and are uninterpretable by anyone, including me. With better note taking skills I will remember the new material covered in class.

3. Procrastinating...  I procrastinate most of the time when I'm given a project or assignment that I have a far ahead deadlines. This is a bad habit that must be broke and will help take off stress that is built up at the end of the deadline.

The Ideal Classroom

Well my ideal classroom would be a combination of what the article said that teachers are starting to do to their lesson and teaching across the country. I would love to have a my students to go home and watch/listen to the teachers' lectures and come to class and do their work and get one on one help with the teacher. I would also love to have my classroom arranged into a "Starbucks Classroom" I think that it would help the students feel comfortable with themselves and it would especially help students that don't have very good social skills.
